    iolard < airard (féach www.dil.ie)

    Foirm de airard atá san fhocal iolard, trí dhíshamhlú -r-r- > -l-r-. Tá samplaí eile againn de i logainmneacha, m.sh. bf, par Iolard (#27379) i gCill Chainnigh, par Iolard (#351) sa Chlár, bf Cnoc Iolaird (#3249) i gCeatharlach, bf Droim Iolaird (#39536) i Muineachán. Níl an t-ardán seo an-mhór sa chás seo ach féach go léiríonn Cahill é ar a léarscáil siúd (1805). É seo agus bf Inse Chúile lastuaidh a bheith ina gcnámh spairne idir bheirt tiarnaí talún a thug an t-ainm Controversyland don áit. Féach Coote i 1814 ‘Controversy Land … owing to a controversy that happened between some of the then owners of the then Lordship of Lea … and one of the ancestors of the Marquis of Drogheda about the right of property to the land (namely Ullard and Inchicooly)’ Stat. Surv. I 547. Cf. bf Fearann an Imris (#44787) i Sligeach.

    Tagraíonn iontralacha 1518–1695 don mhionainm Baile an Abhallortaigh timpeall le bf Baile Briotáis (#28286).
